I sadly lost my cousin Clinton from cancer and fungal infection. It was a very sad and difficult time for the whole family as we lost the youngest member of the family in the first week on 2021. Planning a funeral was going to be another challenge but after several researches I found Poetic Endings. Louise from Poetic Endings was a God sent. Going through a had time and planning a funeral was a very difficult thing to do but after speaking with Louise, we were assured everything will go smoothly. Louise is a kind lady, caring, helpful, comforting and very understanding,I cannot praise Louise and her team enough.Louise was with us through the whole process and guided us to create a beautiful day for Clinton. Louise was always available 24/7. With the help of Louise, Clinton's funeral ceremony was a very beautiful day and was exactly how Clinton would have liked it. From small details to big details to allowing Clinton's friends to have their time to say their final goodbyes. Everything expected was delivered to perfection. We were extremely pleased with Louise and her team who were also very warm and professional. I would highly recommend Poetic Endings Funeral.

I have worked with Joanna at Poetic endings to make arrangements for two funerals, and both times they have been sensitive to what was required, as well as very supportive and efficient. The company is able to provide a bespoke service and understand the difficulties of doing this while a client is grieving. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anybody, they are both professional and caring.

I am so glad that Joanna and all of the good people at Poetic Endings were the ones to look after my father after he died. They listened to us and they gave us the space and the support to make sure that his funeral represented his life and honoured him in a way that gave all of his gathered friends and family a meaningful way to say goodbye. I'll always be grateful that dad's funeral, the last practical thing we were able to do for him, was done with such respectful care, such attention and so much dignity. In the end, the day was full of joy as well as heartfelt grief, a genuinely emotionally connected event. We could not have done that without Poetic Endings. Thank you.

I cannot recommend Poetic Endings highly enough. Joanna and team guided us through the process and helped us to create exactly the type of day that we wanted. Joanna really went above and beyond to help us and the level of care shown by her and her team was hugely comforting during such a difficult time.

I rarely leave reviews but since I felt so happy with the service that Poetic Endings - and in particular Louise - gave, I felt it necessary. It's a very difficult time to be 'shopping around' to find the best place to organise the funeral for your loved one, that I hope my review can help you decide one of the seemingly millions of delicate and important decisions that need to be made.

I did some research and of the 4-5 places I contacted, Poetic Endings were very clear and comprehensive from the outset. I have never had to organise any event of this magnitude, let alone a funeral, so this response was very welcome. There also wasn't the feeling of a sale being pushed (I'm looking at you Cooperative) which is the last thing you want at this vulnerable time.

Having then met with Louise, who was very approachable, friendly, compassionate and understanding, the decision to choose Poetic Endings was assured. Every step of the way Louise guided and supported us in the many and various decisions that we had to make. It relieved all the anxiety and pressure and made the process as a whole simple and stress free.

On the day of the service, everything went so smoothly and seamlessly. Again, all the pressure was taken off by how well each detail was organised and as I commented after it was over; 'It really couldn't have gone any better'. We've also had so many people tell us that it was a beautiful service and how very impressed they were at how well organised the whole thing was.

I should also point out that the celebrant we chose through Poetic Endings, Sophie Duval, was incredible as well. From the outset she was warm and friendly and very easy to talk to about dad when planning on what she would say during the service. The way she delivered the service was pitched perfectly with a flawless balance between compassion and humour. It was such an exemplary reflection of my father that many of his life-long friends commented it was as if Sophie had known him.

I hope I will not need either Poetic Endings or Sophie Duval's services again anytime soon, but should I need to, I will most definitely be using them again. I certainly recommend you use them too.

Louise went above and beyond with her services to ensure what could’ve been a traumatic time, to one of supportive processing of loss. I can’t speak highly enough about this amazing funeral service.. Thank you Louise and team! 💜

I wholeheartedly recommend Poetic Endings, who were kind, thoughtful and sensitive throughout the whole very difficult process of organising my husband's funeral. They helped me give him the ceremony I wanted for him, and so many people told me afterwards that they felt the beautiful service had honoured my husband's life and spirit very well.

We worked as a team . Joanna listened and found ways to bring forth all the ideas so we could create a special bespoke funeral service incorporating the culture and beliefs .
Thank you
